500-hour advanced training
Take your sadhana to the next level. Magnify the power of your presence in teaching.
Now that you have built a strong foundation of practice and vitality through Level I Amrit Yoga, learn how to progressively guide yourself and your students from willful postures to surrendered flow prompted by the inner urgings of prana.
The Level II posture flow is a beautiful blend of deliberate action and surrender to guidance coming from within. The sequence facilitates holding and intuitive exploration in the poses, creating optimum opportunity for prana flow and conscious exploration of new areas in the body. Overall, there are less poses, offering more time to go deeper and enter into your own experience as guided by the wisdom of your body.
Elements of Level II practice:
Pranayama — an essential part of the sequence stimulating upward movement of prana towards the heart and higher centers. We also use pranayama in the poses — using ujjayi breath to connect with intuitive flow and using kapalabhati to consciously move through resistance.
Micromovements, improvisations and variations — intuitive exploration of guided poses to help you connect to the urges of prana.
Prolonged Holding — enter deeper layers of your experience, dissolving mental resistance and accompanying physical blockages. This is essential for the awakening of prana which can only occur when we bypass the divided mind and enter a state of being — no mind. This is the evolution of the first half of the Posture of Consciousness.
Flow (Prana Kriya) — allow energy to be built up in the first half of the pose so strongly that the body naturally moves in response to the urgings of prana upon release. This, we call prana kriya. This is the evolution of the second half of the Posture of Consciousness. Now, we not only feel the energy body as in stage I — we respond to its promptings. Here, we experience deep stillness while we are in action — the beginning of meditation in motion.
